Slow going. Growth is really good. Color is a little off.

Probably going to make it out to PROP this weekend and load up the QT though - so I'll hopefully being saying hello to a few of you locals.

To be honest, I don't really know. I have a 55 gallon drum of RODI that is plumbed to the sump to top off as needed. There is a ceiling fan over the tank, but it's drawing air UP not pushing down (so the heat from the halides goes up) so that doesn't add a lot of evap. I do have an AC unit in the sump room now - one of this ductless mini splits just to combat the AZ summers - and that probably has increased the evap a little. If I had to guess, 10-15 gallons a day, but I've never measured.

I've been following your tank from the start. Always impressed. Glad to see things up and running again. Looking forward to updates.

Hey Gary! You too.

They have. Still some T5 around too, but pretty much everyone I know out here is using LED now. I still have a few MH bulbs I run though in addition to the LEDs - but I'm you know...

Hey does Tom still have the reef shoppe? I own his domain and want to give it to him, but haven't spoken to him in like 10 years.
